Re: pic: 6 speed?? Great in theory - lets see how it works!

Just a proof of concept. The reality is you could change it from a 6 speed to a 10 speed to a 2 speed all by removing a few gears and shortening the shaft lengths.

We're going to prototype it with 2 gears for starters to see how it works and slowly add more gears.

This will prepare us for when the field quadruples in size and we want to get to the other side in 6 very theoretical seconds!

More screen shots coming soon.
